Evidently NYT is as good as picking musicals as it is in picking Mayors

Next time — and there had better not be a next time— don’t treat an election like you are owed a seat by virtue of genealogy & skin color. This photo from early voting shows the people you paid didn’t even want you.

I am embarrassed I didn’t know this DuBois framing;

“what DuBois called "The Sisyphus Syndrome", where each time we roll the huge boulder of soi disant US democracy up the towering mountain of US hypocrisy & resistance, the "Gods" roll it back down on our heads.” From anthology Black Fire

Sorry to hear this. I would not have finished graduate school w/o Dr. Richardson. I was facing challenges that seemed insurmountable (IYKYK). My Mom (who worked 4 him) told me to meet w/him before I dropped out. #Baltimore #RaceB4Race #quilts

Not going to speak ill of the dead and his ill-fitting suits, but it’s worth pointing out Kirk and his ilk (along with the manosphere) almost literally despise empathy. But I’ll feel bad for his kids even though he clearly wanted them to grow up
to watch POC be executed.

If it’s just a hat, then why did you steal it? If this statement is real, Piotr Szczerek is an even bigger turd than first appeared. A Jurassic level POS. Literally took a gift from a child and now saying he did it because he could & we all need to calm down before he sues.

Central to my imminent book, Sweet Taste of Empire, is showing that the inability to look at the actual brutality of slavery is baked into the very beginnings of English slavery in the Caribbean & is 1 of the reasons Black Women are peculiarly absent in 17th century narratives

OK, their clickbait titles are hilarious. That "secret language habit" of speaking Slovak. 🤣. And I want to know if the Orange One is rotting from the head down like a fish.

So much of this resonates with my second book experience. I could have written a quicker book on early modern whiteness, but wanted to stretch myself, then I decided I needed a new writing voice/practice and then the “OMG, I’ve taken so long, this better be amazing” set in
